2006 Sustainability Issue
The 3rd annual Guide to Sustainable Living
No shoyu. No milk. No bread. No rice. Sue Kiyabu did the unthinkable. She went a week without these staples of the average Islander’s diet. The reason: Kiyabu had decided to try her hand–and her mouth and her stomach–at a diet ,which is more sustainability friendly than any other. For one week, not only did Kiyabu’s diet consist solely of organic food but she only ate food that was grown, raised, picked and processed right here in Hawai’i. How did she do? Well, you’ll have to turn the page to find out.
And once you do, of course, you’ll find more than just a story about a dietary trial by fire. You’ll find the rest of Honolulu Weekly’s 3rd Annual Guide to Sustainable Living, an issue chock full of articles on a wide range of environmentally aware subjects. From a farm that grows soil enriching earthworms to a husband and wife duo that dispense organic advice at their store and on the radio to two men who managed to pull off a curbside recycling service well before the city and county of Honolulu, we cover it all. The Guide to Sustainable Living starts here.
